Legislation that would make Holocaust-denial committed overseas an offense under Israeli legal jurisdiction was approved unanimously in first reading by the Knesset on Tuesday.

The passage of the measure would enable Israel to demand the extradition of Holocaust-deniers for prosecution.

The bill was drafted by MK Aryeh Eldad (National Union) as a move against former Palestinian Authority prime minister Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazen) for his doctoral dissertation 20 years ago in which he estimated that the Nazis killed less than a million Jews.

It is likely to serve as a deterrence against Holocaust-deniers visiting Israel, although the possibility of countries consenting to extradition on the offense is unlikely.

The legislation expands the territorial jurisdiction of the Israeli law against Holocaust-denying outside of it borders.

Who do these arrogant bastards think they are? The audacity to think that a group of Jews can control the thoughts and ideas of others outside of their own nation?! To attempt control them, silence them, hold power and sway — ah! — can anyone read this report without seeing the obvious? When someone says these people are too small and insignificant in the world to be part of some evil cartel seeking world domination… doesn’t something like this just flash a bright light in ones eyes and wake you up to what is apparent?! It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see that they seek the power over the very minds of everyone else on earth and want to bring them into their own jurisdiction and meet out punishment for just the suggestion, just the mere thought that Holocaust numbers might be exaggerated or inaccurate. Anyone who can read this and not see the sickening arrogance of the Zionists in Israel has a screw loose.

Jeff – I have read your site for years and often don’t agree with the articles and essays on the site. However, as an American Jew, I cannot believe what has happened to my once peaceful and gentle people under the power and psychopathic dominance of Zionsim. This new ‘law’ is beyond belief.

I am repulsed by this supreme elitist idiocy. With this kind of megalomaniacal crap, Zionism continues to CREATE and fuel anti-Jewish sentiment around the world. Think about it. This Zionist lunacy only goes to confirm what many ‘anti-semites’ have been saying for years!

Americans must also keep in mind how Zionists have forced Bush/Cheney to install an entirely new division in the US Dept of State to monitor ‘anti-semitism’ everywhere on the planet. This is all utter madness.

‘Anti-semitism’, of course, has been recently redefined to include *any* criticism of the Zionist-controlled state of Israel and any of its inhuman policies towards the Palestinians.

I hope Americans can remember that all Jews do NOT condone or support this Israeli ‘law’. And if anyone doubts the control Zionism has over Jews, just read the research articles by Jewish scholars Lenni Brenner, Dr. Henry Makow, Prof Norman Finkelstein and Israel Shamir among others. Thanks to Lenni Brenner, we now know that the Nazis had agreed to give all Jews safe passage out of Europe in 1942-43 for the paltry sum of $2 million dollars.

However, when top Rabbis went to Switzerland to world Zionist headquarters and asked for the money, the Zionists told them NO and to paraphrase the quote from Brenner: “Unless large amounts of Jewish blood is spilled during the war, we won’t be able to so easily secure our new homeland in Palestine after the war.”

So, in a pivotal sense, the Zionists were ultimately responsible for the Holocaust – as it was they who decided this catastrophe of death and suffering in the War had to continue to serve THEIR purposes. They sacrificed us – ‘burnt offerings’ – and they are still using us and Judaism today. Read it and weep: http://www.rense.com/general31/Zionist.htm

America must reject the new Zionist-Israeli ‘law’ and especially the idea that American citizens – or ANY citizen of ANY nation – might somehow be threatened with extradition to Israel to ‘stand trial’ for ‘denying the Holocaust’ …which means, apparently, even asking questions about the ‘official version’ of what happened to us in the war.

As I said, this is total, utter insanity and seeks to destroy freedom of speech worldwide and instill fear of Zionist Israel and its masters. None of my friends that I have spoken to can believe this is happening…they think I am joking.

Wake up America, the clock is running and terminal madness is in the air.
